Hotels in Chicago

Perkins & Will / Kohn Pedersen Fox tower opened March 1989 inside the 900 North Michigan building on the Magnificent Mile — 345 keys (160 rooms, 185 suites) with a five-firm interior layering: Hirsch Bedner on rooms, Pierre-Yves Rochon on the eighth-floor ballroom, BraytonHughes on the lobby and Allium, Rottet Studios on the spa and Adorn. The 44-foot pool with waterfall edge — yes, that pool from Home Alone 2 — sits in the 8,000 sq ft spa above Lake Michigan.

Ludwig Mies van der Rohe's 1971 IBM Building—a dark bronze and glass curtain-wall tower of austere Miesian perfection on the Chicago River—houses Richmond International's 2013 interiors of pale marble, rosewood, and wool that respond to the structural rigour with material warmth without competing with it.

Luxe rooms & suites with marble bathrooms, plus multiple upscale restaurants & a rooftop spa.

Cosmopolitan hotel featuring a rooftop restaurant & pool, as well as an artsy lounge, a spa & a bar.

Vibrant hotel with slick rooms, plus a steakhouse, a breezy American eatery & a bar with city views.

Lucien Lagrange's 1980 Water Tower Place tower hosts a luxury hotel on its upper floors, with lake and city views, spa, indoor pool, and restaurant serving the most functionally central luxury address on Chicago's Magnificent Mile lakeshore shopping corridor.
